Donald Trump Picks Charles Kushner, Father Of His Son-In-Law, As US Ambassador To France Despite Controversial Past
In his post, Trump highlighted Kushner's extensive career in business and public service.“Charlie is the Founder & Chairman of Kushner Companies, one of the largest & most successful privately held real estate firms in the nation,” Trump wrote. He also cited Kushner's past honors, including being named New Jersey Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst & Young, and his appointments to the US Holocaust Memorial Council and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, where he served as chairman.
Trump also commended Kushner's family, including his wife, Seryl, their four children, and 14 grandchildren. He referenced Kushner's son, Jared, who worked closely with Trump in the White House on initiatives such as Operation Warp Speed, criminal justice reform, and the Abraham Accords.
Charles Kushner's history includes a high-profile conviction for tax evasion, illegal campaign donations, and witness tampering. In a case that attracted widespread attention, prosecutors alleged Kushner orchestrated a revenge scheme against his brother-in-law, who was cooperating with federal authorities in an investigation.
